About the Course
Tourism is one of the most motivating activities for any person. It fills us with enthusiasm, with the desire to get to know new places and establish new bonds. The trip begins long before we start it: when we dream about it, when we imagine ourselves visiting places, tasting flavors, getting to know new cultures. In it we enjoy, investigate, discover and above all, we are amazed with experiences to be revealed. “Once a year go somewhere you've never been before” (Dalai Lama), is one of the phrases that surely awakens in us the desire to take a trip soon to unveil new directions.
